New Learning Center Opens in FdB

This past Monday, the Presnor Poteau Learning Center opened its doors to its first eighty-five students. The center, which aims to provide Creole and French literacy instruction to the scores of Fond des Blancs’ residents who have not had the opportunity to attend or finish their schooling, also features individual and small group tutorials as well as a series of "practical learning" mini-courses that will dot each session. The project is a joint effort by St. Boniface and two local peasant cooperatives, known by their acronyms, RATRAP and APFB.
